I had the pleasure of working with Namir at Deloitte and was surprised by the level of maturity he brings to the table, the prompt pace in which he learns, and the great independence he can have if asked to complete a task on his own. I see a big future for Namir as he possesses not only the right credentials, but also the quiet rare sophistication in his character.
